Megagun Posted August 29, 2017 Posted August 29, 2017 Yautja pulls both Baldy and Althea back behind the doors and says "Ragash! Andronis! Close the doors! Somebody tell me what happened!" As he tries his best to save the rest of the party from an equally gruesome fate.
lifesapity Posted August 29, 2017 Author Posted August 29, 2017 @Megagun If you want to try grab one, make a Grapple (Athletics) check and tell them to contest with their choice of Strength (Athletics) OR Dexterity (Acrobatics) if they want to resist.
Megagun Posted August 29, 2017 Posted August 29, 2017 Oh, right....be in like 8 hours until I can. At work lol
DragonRage Posted August 29, 2017 Posted August 29, 2017 Maris ducks under the incoming grabby hands from Yautja and sneaks down the corridor, trying to get close enough to make his move without upsetting the drakes. (Stealth roll 8!). He readies an action to use his clothes as a net/flail to knock down and entangle drakes that try to swarm him.
lifesapity Posted August 29, 2017 Author Posted August 29, 2017 (edited) To Maris @DragonRage The Drakes keep their eyes focused on you as you come up the stairs, they start hissing but but they don't move to attack. You watch as pieces of flesh and bone are torn off Richard's body and taken into the nearby alcoves. His hands, disfigured, lie open, whatever he was carrying, taken.

Megagun Posted August 29, 2017 Posted August 29, 2017 Spoiler Rolled a 10 on Athletics, really low checks today. Just hoping @Cool Girl got my message about relenting.
lifesapity Posted August 29, 2017 Author Posted August 29, 2017 @Cool Girl If you want to try resist Yautja pulling you away roll 1d20+1 or you can let him take you.

lifesapity Posted August 29, 2017 Author Posted August 29, 2017 @Cool Girl no, he is trying to stop you running up the stairs towards Richard's corpse and the swarms of drakes protecting it.
Cool Girl Posted August 30, 2017 Posted August 30, 2017 @lifesapity Alright I'll resist him trying to pull me away. Spoiler Rolled a 13 for that. Althea runs towards Richard to get him out of the swarming drakes.
lifesapity Posted August 30, 2017 Author Posted August 30, 2017 Althea slips past Yautja's outstretched and, passing Ragash, runs up the staircase following Maris.
Jace Stormkirk Posted August 30, 2017 Posted August 30, 2017 yisan is in the room where the goblins were killed rubbing his legs because the bites from the drakes sting
Megagun Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 I head back into the room with the others, letting Ragash and Andronis close the doors, a defeated look upon my face as half the party is now gone.
DragonRage Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 Maris charges towards the drakes and Richard's corpse, swinging his robes like a net! He intends to trap/stun the drakes long enough to get a piece of Richard's body and run for his life to safety.
rustytengo Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 (edited) Ragash follows after Althea and Maris as they headed up the stairs ready to burn any of the drakes that might come at them with magic. She all ready got one person killed do to her wants so she figure it would be a good thing to at least do her best to protect the other's if she could. Edited August 31, 2017 by rustytengo
lifesapity Posted September 2, 2017 Author Posted September 2, 2017 With two swift strikes Maris breaks the bones in Richards hand, in response one of the swarms moves towards Maris and starts biting at his flesh, but they can't seem to find purchase. He reaches down grabs on of the fingers that the drakes had already started to bite off and rips it off the rest of the hand and turns and runs down the stairs past Ragash, as he does the swarm lashes out one final time but his swaying clothes intercept their strike. More pieces are ripped off Richard as they tear his body apart and take the chunks into the alcoves.
rustytengo Posted September 2, 2017 Posted September 2, 2017 Ragash frowns and follows Maris pulling a little on Althea "Come on we did what we could. He wouldn't want you to die." She said trying to get her to follow them.
DragonRage Posted September 2, 2017 Posted September 2, 2017 Maris considers casting Druidcraft to help ward the drakes off with some skunk stench, but then he realizes that he left his only casting focus behind. Resolving to ask someone to cut him a quarterstaff the next time he gets a chance, the monk rejoins Ragash and Althea. "Well, that was bracing," He states calmly, "It seems the Dao smiles upon us today. Excellent. If I passed through the wheel now, I would feel like I'd abandoned you." He dresses as quickly as he can, and stows his razor and bowl back in their pockets. Then, he finds a third pocket, as far from his bowl as he can manage, for the finger. "Ugh. I'll need to wash my robes soon, and get the meat off that. It is... dripping. I do not like it. But for Richard's sake I shall persevere."
Jace Stormkirk Posted September 2, 2017 Posted September 2, 2017 yisan is humming a tune to pass the boredom waiting for the others to arrive and decide which of the other two doors they should go through next
Megagun Posted September 2, 2017 Posted September 2, 2017 I push the doors closed as soon as all three of the others have finished passing through, then I turn and look at them before shaking my head "Tell me you only went in for Richard and not those damnable eggs"
DragonRage Posted September 2, 2017 Posted September 2, 2017 Maris gazes blankly at Yautja. "What eggs?"

She then picked up Richard's body and said: "Let's get out of here! I'll revive him once we're safe" she said as she tried to remain strong.
lifesapity Posted September 2, 2017 Author Posted September 2, 2017 @Cool Girl As Althea aproaches the top of the stairs, she looks around and Richard's body is gone... all the drakes left behibd is a red smear where they pulled his body parts into the alcoves.

Althea notices a red smear. She then thought Maybe if I use Spare The Dying on the red smear, he'll come back. So, Althea decides to give it a try.
lifesapity Posted September 2, 2017 Author Posted September 2, 2017 Althea releases the diving magic from her fingertips... nothing. Dread overcomes her. Spoiler @Cool Girl Spare the dying can only be used on a dying creature, not a dead one (once you get to a higher level you will learn spells that can raise the dead, and that will bring Richard back if you wish.)
